For me THE KING AND I has always been the best of the 1950's R&H films. Asian-American viewers may feel otherwise but the hackneyed regional colloquialisms - which feel largely invented- in OKLAHOMA! and CAROUSEL feel less intrusive here. And having had a long run on Broadway Yul Brynner is astonishingly at home in the role and, as you say, he was one sexy mofo. And Deborah Kerr's décolletage is amazing!

And the polka is basically the equivalent of one damn fine shag in 3/4 time.
